Read the passage and answer the questions. (5 pts)
Computing is now at the same stage as printing was when the first printing
presses were usod. Before printing presses were invented, only rich poople like kings
and dukes could afford to buy books. Often these people were unable to read and hadn't
enough time to learn. In any case, the books were so big that it was difficult foranyone
to relax with a book as we do today. They wanted to book because they were expensive
and there was something magical about them. Only a few people were able to write, and
it took an extremely long time to write a book. Monks and other people who could write
said ordinary people could not leam to read.
| The position with computers is very similar today. A few years ago, computers were
very large and expenısive. Business managers and rich people ordered them but they
didn't know how to use them. In many countrics, however, the situation has now
completely changed. Lots of poople not only own microcomputers but also know how
to use them.
